USER WARNINGS RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PROPER USE OF WEIGHING INSTRUMENT Keep away from heat sources and direct sunlight Repair the instrument from rain (except special IP versions) Do not wash with water jets (except special IP versions) Do not dip in water Do not spill liquid on the instrument Do not use solvents to clean the instrument Do not install in areas subject to explosion hazard (except special Atex versions)

WELDING: Avoid welding with the load cells already installed. If this cannot be avoided, place the welder ground clamp close to the required welding point to prevent sending current through the load cell body. WINDY CONDITIONS - KNOCKS - VIBRATIONS: The use of weigh modules is strongly recommended for all load cells to compensate for misalignment of the support surfaces.
RS485 serial port for connection to: PC/PLC up to 32 instruments (max 99 with line repeaters) by ASCII Laumas or ModBus R.T.U. protocol, remote display, printer. Optional: integrated Profibus DP, DeviceNet, CANopen, Profinet IO, Ethernet/IP, Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, RS232/RS485, SERCOS III, PowerLink, CC-Link output.

ESC: to cancel and return to the previous menu.
REAL CALIBRATION (WITH SAMPLE WEIGHTS) After having performed the THEORETICAL CALIBRATION, EQUALIZATION and TARE WEIGHT ZERO SETTING, this function allows correct calibration to be done using sample weights of known value and, if necessary, any deviations of the indicated value from the correct value to...
CONFIRMATION AND CHANGE OF ACTIVE CHANNELS After performing the calibration and verifying that the system works properly, you can confirm the channels automatically detected by the instrument; in this way, in case of accidental interruption of the cable of one or more load cells, the instrument displays the alarm. Automatic load cells detection is enabled by default on all 8 channels of the instrument.
EQUALIZATION At the end of the equalization you must perform the TARE WEIGHT ZERO SETTING and, if necessary,the REAL CALIBRATION. REAL EQUALIZATION ...
